+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+xI see that the active groups are not boycotting anymore, piss weak, no banner is going to make the suits and the corporates funding the suites scared. I guess fans here want to be treated as customers, have a week of lunacy and back to being a customer. The decision won't change. The drama queens are finally realising it perhaps. Most fans aren't walking out anyway. Majority rules. Just get on with it. If you don't like it, don't go. The sport will move on. As I've said before GF is just the latest example of a long list of similar treatment False World Cup euphoria being exposed is why everyone got their arse in their hand. A-League attendance is already down to those who are happy to be treated like this perpetually Happy to be treated like what?? Can you please list all that harsh treatment these fans are receiving?? Off the top of my head Lopsided fixture lists to satisfy TV every season Attendance limiting kickoff times to satisfy TV every season Hedgefunds supplying Marquees to specific franchises rather than others to improve metrics Star Wars Real clubs excluded from expansion process due to TV 'fish where the fish are ' dictates Active support suppression Hmmm Sounds like the AFL Lopsided fixture list. Tick Kick off times for tv. Tick
Real clubs excluded from expansion process. Tick
GF in one location for 40 years. Tick.
Stupid themed rounds. Tick.
Active support suppression. No.
Remember all those protests when AFL did all this to their fans. 🤦🏻♂️
Hedge funds supplying marquees is NOT happening.
Once again....
Football fans are drama queens.
Harsh treatment?? 🤣🤣 You said Harsh not me Silverlake cash is funding Nani And I don't give a fuck about other sports Can you proove silverlake is funding Nani? Thought not. Lets deal with facts please. Maybe the APL's own report will do https://backend.keepup.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/A-Leagues-Report-2020-2022.pdf&sa=U&ved=2ahUKEwiYtczEwI78AhVVcWwGHRxUDKkQFnoECAEQAg&usg=AOvVaw0189eYuF8Ndd0aQGZH3gGOEveryone but you seems to be aware of the APL sugar-hit program Many articles refer to the Silverlake investment being used to 'grow the game' hence the funds not being available to cover lost revenue ie the GF deal Fixed the link. https://backend.keepup.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/A-Leagues-Report-2020-2022.pdf

Am not the target A-league audience and interest has been dwindling for years, grew up going to Victoria Park but don't watch that sport anymore due to reasons listed in this tread and more. The VFL/AFL can get away with doing as it pleases from a business perspective as it doesn't have to compete against overseas leagues.... Lower the cap, give young Aussies more of a chance, the Australian market will never be able to compete, sugar hits or not.

Most of those active groups have no backbone, weak.

You claim silverlake paid for Nani and decided to send him to victory ahead of other clubs. Is there some funding from the league for Nani like there was Foxtel funding for del Piero and Cahill? Perhaps. But it's not fully funding and the club still has to pay for a big chunk of the wages. The league just can't send them where they want to. Which is what you said.

Prefer to see young talent given more of a chance to play.

+xNo point trying to talk sense into butler99… he would argue all day that water isn’t actually wet…🥱😴😂 He also was crapping on and on about being against people getting covid 19 vaxxed as well during worst of pandemic 😷 😜 Another ploy to discredit the person not the argument. Drama queen and self entitled bitches are among us in football. If you don't like it then don't come. Like the 26 people that walked out of games over the last week.

The 3% could've just stayed away. But the petulant brats that they are, they needed to make a scene. Embarrassing.

+xHe also was crapping on and on about being against people getting covid 19 vaxxed as well during worst of pandemic 😷 😜 Please quote me where I was "against people getting COVID Vax during the worst of the pandemic" Such a dramatic quote. From a drama queen. I was always against mandates and blanket Vax policy. Compulsory Vax for young fit and healthy people was unnecessary. E.g. Sportsmen and women. Mandates for a vax that doesn't sterilise the virus is obsolete. But don't let facts get in the way of an attempt to discredit someone. For any fatties out there. Being fit and healthy seems to give you a similar benefit to the only thing the Vax could give you. Less severe symptoms. Allegedly. 🤔 Start exercising and eat well. 👍 Who would've thunk it. 😁 Was labelled a conspiracy theory not too long ago. https://www.washingtonpost.com/wellness/2022/12/21/covid-exercise-hospitalization-mortality/

Speaks volumes of your intelligence. Derogatory to who? Im a fatty. Lost 12-15kg in the last year. Need to lose another 10kg more. The last 10kgs are harder It's amazing the ailments that seem to be healed when getting fitter and healthier and eating right. And dealing with COVID seems to be different for those that are fitter, young and healthier as opposed to those that are not. Anyways. When you are finished being offended on behalf of others feel free to attend to the actual points i was making in the post. You have a knack of dodging the actual points of the posts. Q Or does it give your life meaning playing a victim, for yourself, and on behalf of others ? Either way. Have a Merry Christmas. Hope you don't get offended me wishing you that.

You claimed fans are being treated poorly by this decision and there is a long list of it??
You hate the aleague yet you post about it continuously.
If you do hate the aleague you claim, then why are you trying to convince fans of the aleague that they are being treated poorly.
As an aleague fan, most of us dont feel like we are being treated poorly.
Thanks.
I hope you can move on to a league that you like.
